re: Who's the best returning wide receiver in the sec?

First off there is plenty of talent at the position, but nowhere close to anything like the last 4 or so years in the SEC where there were 7 first round picks on two teams alone, plus standouts at Ole Miss, UF and A&M just off the top of my head.

The SEC might not ever be as good at WR as they were the last 2-3 years. Solid argument that was the best run at any conference in CFB history at the position.

I don’t have a clear #1 for next year, but here is my list of guys to watch:
Boutte (LSU)
Smith (A&M)
Burks (ARK)
Metchie (Bama)

If you want to add TE into the mix I think the conference is absolutely loaded for next year:
Wydermyer (A&M)
Billingsley (Bama)
Washington (UGA)
Gilbert if he comes back
Latu (Bama) is another name to watch

Smith was to Waddle what Kearis Jackson is to George Pickens.

Pickens injured, maybe forever, but Kearis Jackson is a playmaking son of a bitch for UGA.

Kearis Jackson is the most underrated player in the SEC right now.
